APPENDIX. 419<br />

se aliquod habere existimat, polliciti fuimus aliquem idoneum<br />

iudicem ipsi dare, qui earn rem cognoscat et servata aequitate<br />

iudicet aut per compositionem transigat. Quod si eum<br />

iudicem a M'^' tua dari maluerit, eo quoque contenti erimus,<br />

sicut ei scripsimus. Quocirca M^«"' tuam, etc." Whereas<br />

in <strong>the</strong> brief to Eck <strong>the</strong> addition is not cancelled, here <strong>the</strong><br />

whole <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> pi rase down to " ei scripsimus " is cancelled, and<br />

instead <strong>the</strong>re is placed in <strong>the</strong> margin that which is printed in<br />

GouBAU. Fur<strong>the</strong>r, after " Quocirca Maiestatem tuam<br />

<strong>the</strong>re followed : " cuius <strong>of</strong>hcium est ut ecclesias et ecclesiarum<br />

iura tueatur, defendat et protegat " which was afterwards<br />

cancelled. That <strong>the</strong> text in Goubau is not always correct is<br />

shown by ano<strong>the</strong>r variation : on p. 82, 1. 6 <strong>from</strong> <strong>the</strong> top,<br />

instead <strong>of</strong> " iure peti " should be read " vi peti " thus runs<br />

not only <strong>the</strong> minute in <strong>the</strong> Codex Landau, but also <strong>the</strong> volume<br />

<strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> register <strong>of</strong> briefs in <strong>the</strong> Papal Secret Archives, Arm. 44<br />

t. 13-<br />

<strong>The</strong> words after " debet " in Goubau 82, 1. 5-7 <strong>from</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />

bottom, in <strong>the</strong> Codex Landau read : " ne bona temporalia<br />

illius ecclesiae contra ius et de facto, ut dicitur, occupentur."<br />

Of general interest is an addition in <strong>the</strong> brief to <strong>the</strong> Bishop<br />

<strong>of</strong> Passau, <strong>of</strong> May 26, 1568, concerning <strong>the</strong> prohibition <strong>of</strong><br />

communion under both kinds (Goubau 83-85 ; cf. supra<br />

P- 205, n 5). Here too it would seem that Goubau has not<br />

followed exactly <strong>the</strong> volumes <strong>of</strong> registers <strong>of</strong> briefs, since in<br />

Arm. 44, t. 13, as weU as in <strong>the</strong> Codex Landau, p. 210 seq.,<br />

in this place after " habendos " (Goubau 84, i.i <strong>from</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />

bottom), <strong>the</strong>re is a long passage, which has not been can-<br />

celled, and which runs as follows : " Sed ne praedecessoris<br />

quidem nostri concessione quisquam moveri debet. Primum<br />

enim is tanta in re minus quam decuit et oportuit diligentem<br />

et maturam dehberationem habuit. Non enim ad sacrum<br />

collegium cardinahum, ut debuit et ut mos est, de tanta<br />

re rettuht, quod si fecisset et nos. qui turn de eorum numero<br />

eramus et multo maior ac sanior ut presumitur . . . [illeg-<br />

ible word] cardinalium pars nihil temere^ innovandum ess-<br />

cen.suissemus. Consuluit ille duos aut tres solum de tanto<br />

coUegio et eos potissimum quos sibi facile assensuros esse<br />

putavit. Ea tamen in re Spiritus Sancti gratia ilH manifesto<br />

affuit, quod ab iis, qui communicare sub utraque specie<br />

' In <strong>the</strong> recristei-vohime <strong>of</strong> Briefs in <strong>the</strong> Papal Secret .Archives is <strong>the</strong> anomalous<br />

reading : " et nos et maior cardinalium pars nihil temere."
